Timezone options

Could there be an option to have time on the site displayed as the timezone the user is in? Or an option to choose which timezone to use

Hmmm... Sounds ok, but people may be left out of Forum Games because they are in different time zones (and therefore could not post around the same time as everyone else. It's no a problem for me, because I can never sleep at night and just lurk here all night on my iPod instead (seriously, it's like 12:59 ATP here), but other people don't know that (but now they do because I just posted it. But what if they don't read it? Shut up!) Since I can't see another use for it here, I vote no. Still, I could be swayed if you convince me it's useful!

No, what i meant was that the time displayed for anything with date and time be in the user's timezone. ie, I live in singapore, so the time displayed would be GMT+8. It wouldn't affect forum games or whatever, it just makes it easier for people.

True, but people who want their Forum Game to run fast may exclude people from other time zones.

I think we had this ability already, but it was switched out to display the current, non-time zone specific "X Hours Ago" system...

But for comments on games?

I dunno, no real use for it...

On a completely unrelated topic, unless someone else posts, I'm now the most recent poster in every recent forum section! Yay! You are a sad lonely person. I know... Everyone can see it. I know...

What about in private messages? They should have the hours ago system.

Comments and Pms are using the time system currently.
